TACOS EL TIO - EGG HARBOR HARBOR TOWNSHIP, NEW JERSEY

Tacos El Tio, located at 6400 Black Horse Pike in Egg Harbor Township received more votes than any other Mexican cuisine restaurant.

We had Tacos El Tio last night for dinner … chicken fajitas and Chicken Ropa Tacos, with both white and brown rice and all of their great accompanying condiments.

Tacos El Tio servings are always generous and there’s enough left for a nice lunch today.
